I'm Looking for a Lovely Home for my Dad's Cat.
Due to my Dad's ill health, I am needing to find a new home for one of his cats. Introducing Olive (Olly) McGuarkle. She is a middle aged, ginger & white, a gorgeous temprament & is very friendly. She is pretty good with dogs, but I think she would be better being the only cat in the household, as having more than one cat in my Dad's household, & a tom cat lurking around, is causing her to spray. The vet feels once she is on her own, & aided with a squirty bottle, this problem should resolve. Genuine replies only.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
